Please note that a reservation alone is NOT VALID FOR TRAVEL unless used alongside a valid InterRail pass.

If you already have a valid InterRail pass, or are planning to buy one, selecting 'Seat Reservation' allows you to pre-book a seat on a specific train.

Why do I need to make a seat reservation when I already have an InterRail pass?
Seat reservations are compulsory on most high speed and overnight trains and are not included in the price of an InterRail pass. Find out more in our Frequently Asked Questions.
